Spotlight On: CA Healthy Families

MAXIMUS participates in the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services payment error rate measurement (PERM) studies. Our Healthy Families CHIP project in California has the lowest PERM in the nation, with an error rate of just 0.04%.

"These results validate the effectiveness of California’s high accuracy performance standards and superior performance by MAXIMUS in administering the program. Together and in partnership, MRMIB and MAXIMUS are enrolling uninsured children into California’s CHIP program efficiently and accurately."
